The invention discloses a
copper alloy with excellent hot rolling performance and a manufacturing method thereof, the
copper alloy comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 0.6-1.0 wt% of Ni, 1.0-2.0 wt% of Sn, 0.01-0.03 wt% of Mg, 0.06-0.10 wt% of P, less than or equal to 0.0010 wt% of O, and the balance of Cu, and inevitable
impurity alloy,
oxygen-free
copper is used as a matrix, the
oxygen content is controlled to be less than or equal to 0.0010 wt%, the
trace element Mg is added, the alloy has excellent hot workability, in the process of melting
casting and hot rolling, the
ingot has no
cracking phenomenon and has excellent hot workability, the yield strength Rp of the alloy is larger than or equal to 520 Mpa, the
ductility A11.3 is larger than or equal to 6%, the electric
conductivity is larger than or equal to 38% IACS, the bending
machining performance (GW and BW directions) R / t is smaller than or equal to 1, the stress residual rate is larger than or equal to 85% after heat preservation is conducted for 1000 hours at the temperature of 150 DEG C, and a plate strip processed by the alloy is widely applied to connectors, terminals or switch parts of electrical, automobile and communication devices and the like.
